Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter, melted, divided
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 1 (15-ounce) package folded refrigerated pie crusts
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 5 large Granny Smith or other firm apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch wedges
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Coat deep-dish pie plate with cooking spray and line it with waxed paper. Coat waxed paper with cooking spray.
In small bowl, combine 4 tablespoons butter, brown sugar, and pecans; mix well and spread evenly over bottom of pie plate. Unfold 1 pie crust and place it in pie plate, pressing crust firmly against nut mixture and sides of plate; set aside.
In large bowl, combine granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, and remaining 2 tablespoons butter; mix well. Add apples and toss gently to coat. Spoon into pie crust.
Unfold second pie crust and place over apple mixture. Trim and fold edges together to seal. Using a knife, cut four 1-inch slits in top crust.
Bake 1 to 1-1/4 hours, or until crust is golden (see Notes).
Carefully loosen waxed paper around rim and invert pie onto serving plate while still hot. Remove waxed paper and allow to cool slightly; slice into wedges and serve warm, or allow to cool completely before serving.
